A Cape Town radio DJ has admitted that he exposed himself and made an indecent request from a male colleague while the man was still on air.
Radio Zibonele presenter Zamile Mkontwana has been suspended from work and is due to appear before a disciplinary committee charged with indecent behaviour, sexual harassment at the workplace and interfering with station operations.
This is after the 34-year-old allegedly sexually assaulted his co-worker while the pair were in studio last Friday.
The station manager, Mzamo Ngomana, has confirmed Mkontwana's suspension.
"He is due to appear before the disciplinary committee next week," he says.
In an interview with the Daily Voice, Mkontwana claims he did not mean to frighten his co-worker.
He claims it was not a sex attack and that they had been intimate before.
"He was in the studio when I walked up to him and asked if he could do something for me," he says.
Mkontwana's request was not met as the DJ was on air at the time so he exposed himself instead.
"When he was done reporting he looked at me and asked why I was doing that. I knew there was nobody there and I said 'why not?'"
"I left for a few minutes to go to the kitchen and drink water, I came back, went to him and pulled him by his belt buckle and he said no.
"I could not understand because we had what I thought to be an understanding or a thing going on.
"This was not the first time this had happened.
"I went to him later that day and apologised and thought that was the end of it.
"But later that day I was called into the boss' office and suspended for misconduct.
"I was even more surprised to learn that a criminal case had been opened."
Mkontwana's victim, however, denies ever having any sexual relations with the accused.
By late Wednesday, police said they had yet to arrest Mkontwana.
